No new concerns for Fleetwood

Fleetwood have no fresh injury concerns for the clash with Scunthorpe as boss Uwe Rosler searches for his first win since taking charge.Having been knocked out of the EFL Cup on penalties by his former club Leeds in midweek, the German will be determined to secure three points against the Iron and will likely select an attacking side.Striker Aaron Holloway's inclusion in midweek paid off as he netted his first goal of the new campaign, and he could be given the nod again.Devante Cole is in contention to start alongside Holloway.

Scunthorpe expect to be without strikers Paddy Madden and Tom Hopper for the trip.

Madden is still sidelined with a calf injury sustained in pre-season, while Hopper was a late withdrawal from the midweek cup win over Notts County due to illness.

He had a light training session on Friday but remains a doubt.

The Iron went to extra-time on Tuesday and may look to the likes of Sam Mantom, Hakeeb Adelakun and Josh Morris to freshen up the starting XI.
